My watercolor paintings explore the quiet space between the world around us and the world within us. When life feels uncertain and unpredictable, memories, worries, and imagined futures can blur our experience of the present. I am interested in these moments when the outside world becomes distant and our inner thoughts become more vivid.
I am drawn to small, fleeting experiences—a quiet gesture, a subtle change in light, or a thought that lingers after a moment has passed. Through watercolor, I slow these moments down and give them space to be noticed. The paintings are not meant to tell a fixed story, but to hold a feeling of uncertainty, stillness, and reflection.
My experience as an immigrant has shaped this way of seeing. Moving between places and cultures has made me especially aware of the distance between the world we inhabit and the world we carry within ourselves. Through my work, I seek a quiet connection with the viewer—a moment in which we can step away from the noise of everyday life and recognize something familiar in the stillness.
